But that wouldn't effect the dash, that is earthed from the back of the dils to behing the internal fusebox IIRC.

It did in my case...

My symptoms were heat gauge shot straight up to max, then dropped to min. Rev counter failed and then fuel gauge started becoming erratic...

Fix was re-attach the gearbox earth.
